Abstract :
Nowadays usually the drug delivery during the surgeries is done manually by giving injection to the patient. During this drug delivery process some can commit minute mistakes in the quantity of drug release which leads to critical condition and can influence the health of the patient, so to decide and deliver the quantity of drug, it requires significant effort from the clinical standpoint not guaranteeing an optimal performance. The proposed system involves automated drug delivery to the patient based on some health parameters, such as fever, sugar, etc. This system involves a linear actuation mechanism to deliver exact amount of drug delivery based on the sensor data. Delivering adequate drug requires precise automation in drug delivery system which will improve the patient safety, reduce the cost due to minimal consumption of drug and will help in early post-operative recovery.
